Chapter 54

Chapter 54

Yi Tiantian's inner thoughts were heard loud and clear by her classmates, who all gaped in shock.

In a hidden corner, Cheng Zhi's figure flickered past, her eyes filled with a complex mix of emotions.

After Chen Nong had incited Chen Chen and instructed her to leave quickly, Yi Tiantian finally no longer needed to hide in the bushes.

Seeing the main parties depart, the classmates scattered hurriedly.

Just then, Gang Fengxing arrived with the cameraman, finally finding Yi Tiantian.

"Tiantian, why are you here?"

Gang Fengxing asked, knowing full well that he was fishing for more gossip.

But Yi Tiantian didn't catch on and simply replied, "I felt dizzy earlier, so I came out for a walk."

Though he missed out on the gossip, Gang Fengxing immediately grew concerned upon hearing about Yi Tiantian's dizziness.

"Are you okay? Should we pause the show for a break?"

"No, no, let's just go have lunch," Yi Tiantian waved off his concern.

Gang Fengxing still wasn't at ease and kept an eye on Yi Tiantian throughout their way to the cafeteria, only slightly relieved when he confirmed she was fine.

In the afternoon, the program arranged for the teachers to give their first mini-lectures, primarily to familiarize the guests and students with each other and introduce the subjects they would be teaching.

.

Each of the three guests had a primary class to oversee, but collectively they taught three classes.

Cheng Zhi was responsible for vocal music, mainly teaching Vocal Music Class 1.

Gang Fengxing handled physical training, primarily teaching Model Class 1.

Yi Tiantian, as the unique idol course instructor at Brand University of the Arts, mainly taught Idol Class 1.

Chen Nong was in charge of nutrition for all three classes. Chen Chen was in Gang Fengxing's Model Class 1, while Little Qi was in Yi Tiantian's Idol Class 1.

"After today's mini-lectures, the rooftop showdown will begin!"

With renewed energy, Yi Tiantian thought to herself as the guests headed to their respective classes after lunch.

Gang Fengxing, having missed out on the full story, could sense something significant was about to happen.

Cheng Zhi's face showed a hint of suspicious seriousness as she remained silent, lips pursed.

As the three guests entered their respective classrooms, the mini-lectures officially began.

The first class went exceptionally well, with enthusiastic responses from the students and high praise from the live stream audience, giving "Idol University Season 3" a strong start.

However, everyone's minds were preoccupied with ants crawling under their skin, eagerly waiting for the end of class.

Because after class, they could witness the drama firsthand!

Chen Nong taught in Vocal Music Class 2 next door to Cheng Zhi and was unaware of Yi Tiantian's thoughts, thus oblivious to what was about to unfold.

The moment the dismissal bell rang, before Chen Nong could finish his lesson, he saw Cheng Zhi gesturing urgently from the doorway, having dismissed the cameraman.

So Chen Nong waved to the students and said, "That's it for today's class. You're dismissed."

As the students left, they curiously glanced at Cheng Zhi standing by the door.

"Strange, the students seemed rather cold towards me today, even rolling their eyes at me..."

Chen Nong mused aloud, holding his books.

But before he could finish, Cheng Zhi interrupted him.

"Do you realize this is criminal behavior!"

Cheng Zhi whispered sternly to Chen Nong.

"What did I do?"

Chen Nong, unaware that Cheng Zhi had learned of his plan to make two girls fight each other from Yi Tiantian's thoughts, asked in confusion.

"Haven't you considered the long-term consequences? Even if you get rid of the trouble temporarily, you'll create endless problems!"

Cheng Zhi spoke in hushed tones, glancing around anxiously.

Chen Nong fell silent for a moment. Though he didn't know how Cheng Zhi found out, he understood her concern.

He had been annoyed by these two girls and concocted this devious plan.

But he hadn't considered the repercussions if he succeeded in making them fight, including potential family involvement and the risk of losing his job and being disgraced forever!

Realizing the folly of his impulsive idea, Chen Nong panicked.

"What should we do?"

Chen Nong turned to Cheng Zhi, anxious.

Cheng Zhi gave him a resentful look and urged, "Follow me!"

Right after class ended, Yi Tiantian broadcasted the upcoming rooftop showdown through her inner thoughts.

As Little Qi was wondering what "the rooftop battle" meant, she heard a familiar voice coming from outside the door.

This voice made her seethe with hatred. It was Chen Chen, with her dyed yellow hair and a look of disdain on her face.

"Cough, cough!"

Chen Chen walked straight toward Little Qi and stopped in front of her.

"I need to talk to you. Come with me."

All the classmates' eyes were fixed on the two of them.

Some students were so nervous that their hair stood on end, knowing what was about to happen between these two girls.

But there were also some who had a strange gleam of excitement in their eyes, eagerly anticipating what would unfold next.

"Why should I go with you?"

Little Qi, of course, refused to back down and retorted directly.

"If you don't come with me, it means you admit defeat!" Chen Chen leaned close to Little Qi's ear and whispered, "Then Mr. Chen will be mine!"

These words instantly ignited Little Qi's competitive spirit, and she gritted her teeth, saying, "Fine! Let's go! Who's afraid of who!"

And so, the two girls ran up to the rooftop.

Yi Tiantian instructed the nearby students to call the police and hurriedly followed the two girls up to the rooftop.

But just as Yi Tiantian reached the rooftop door, she found that Chen Chen had locked it from the inside!

The viewers watching the live stream realized that something terrible might be about to happen!

[D*mn, what's going on? How did the two girls end up on the rooftop and lock the door?!]

[What? Is this some mistress vs. wife confrontation?]

[I don't know, but the rooftop is dangerous! One wrong move and they could fall!]

A cold wind blew across the rooftop, making Little Qi shiver.

Their building was twenty stories high, and Little Qi glanced down involuntarily before quickly looking away.

"What's wrong? Are you scared?"

Chen Chen crossed her arms, her expression full of mockery.

"What do I have to be scared of?!" Little Qi retorted, "Mr. Chen told me yesterday that he wants you to get an abortion! Then he'll be with me!"

Chen Chen sneered, saying contemptuously, "That's just your fantasy. Mr. Chen clearly told me yesterday that he chose me!"

Little Qi fell silent. She had indeed learned about this through Yi Tiantian's thoughts, but she still refused to believe it.

She preferred to think that Yi Tiantian and Chen Chen were just talking nonsense rather than face the truth that the person she liked was actually a scumbag!

"You're lying! He obviously likes me! During the break, he told me he wants to be with me!"

Little Qi shouted at Chen Chen with all her strength.

Chen Chen remained calm, smiling at the now almost out-of-control Little Qi, continuing to provoke her.

"When we were together, you were in the classroom right next door!"

Hearing Chen Chen's words, Little Qi clenched her fists so tightly that they started to ache.

"Chen Chen is a scheming girl. She wants to provoke Little Qi into attacking her, then find a chance to make Little Qi fall off the building!"

"This way, Chen Chen can eliminate her rival and escape blame for Little Qi's accidental death!"

"But what Chen Chen doesn't know is that not only will she not escape, but she will also be dragged down by Little Qi as she falls!"

Yi Tiantian waited anxiously outside for the students to bring the rooftop key, munching on the drama unfolding inside.

Little Qi broke out in a cold sweat upon hearing Yi Tiantian's words.

She had almost lunged at Chen Chen!

Her initially intense emotions suddenly cooled like water poured over her, and she calmed down quickly.

The voices of the two girls came through the slightly ajar rooftop door, allowing the viewers to hear everything clearly.

[It's a typical melodramatic love story!! But students at Brand University of the Arts getting so worked up over relationships? Not worth it!]

[Exactly! Getting into such a prestigious university already puts them ahead of 99% of their peers! There's no need to risk their lives over a relationship!]

[I'm really worried about their safety!]

On the rooftop, Chen Chen was surprised to see Little Qi suddenly calm down.

Feeling a bit anxious, she added, "What's wrong? Jealous? You'll have plenty more reasons to be jealous in the future! We'll do it countless times!"

Little Qi's mind was in turmoil. She slowly squatted down, hugging herself and crying, "Don't push me! Don't push me!"

Chen Chen's goal was to provoke her. Seeing the girl's breakdown, she burst into exaggerated laughter, "Hahahaha! My child will be Mr. Chen's beloved treasure! And the bastard in your belly will be nothing but trash, eventually flushed down the toilet with the filth!"

Chen Chen's words were too much. Despite Little Qi's efforts to suppress her anger, she fell into Chen Chen's trap.

She stood up abruptly and lunged at Chen Chen.

"I'll fight you to the end!!"

Little Qi had already thrown caution to the wind. Although she knew her tragic fate from Yi Tiantian's inner voice, she also learned that Chen Chen would die too!

So at worst, they would both go down in flames together!

At this moment, the small glass door leading to the rooftop was surrounded by onlooker classmates. The student who had gone to find the key returned with the principal and some bad news.

The principal anxiously said, "The key to the rooftop is missing! The surveillance footage shows it was stolen by a girl with yellow hair!"

Yi Tiantian had assumed there would be a spare key, but she never expected the school to lack such basic safety measures.

Just then, a cry of shock came from the crowd of onlookers.

"Woc!!"

Yi Tiantian and the principal turned to see the two girls, who were still confronting each other on the rooftop, suddenly grappling with each other.

Their faces twisted in anger, Little Qi pinned Chen Chen beneath her, their feet dangling over the edge of the rooftop!

If they moved just a bit more, they could fall from the twenty-story building!

This scene was heart-stopping.

Yi Tiantian realized they couldn't delay any longer!

"If those two girls continue fighting, they will fall to their deaths in one minute!"

"We have to find a way to open the rooftop door!"

Yi Tiantian's inner voice sounded like a death countdown, making the surrounding students shudder.

Just then, a strong hand swung a fire extinguisher at the glass door leading to the rooftop.

The glass door shattered, allowing people outside to finally enter the rooftop!

The person wielding the fire extinguisher was Gang Fengxing. After class, he had been called for an interview by the production team and only learned about the incident after it ended.

Upon hearing "Yi Tiantian" and "major incident," Gang Fengxing became extremely anxious. When he arrived, he heard Yi Tiantian's inner voice and rushed forward with the fire extinguisher.

Yi Tiantian gave Gang Fengxing a grateful look before quickly stepping over the broken glass into the balcony.

The onlookers tried to follow, but Gang Fengxing and the principal sternly stopped them.

The principal wanted to join Yi Tiantian, but Gang Fengxing held him back.

"Tiantian can handle it alone. We can't provoke these two girls further."

Gang Fengxing's eyes were filled with trust in Yi Tiantian.

The principal stood by the balcony door, understanding Gang Fengxing's concern, and reluctantly nodded.

However, the audience watching through the live stream were not convinced.

[Yi Tiantian going alone won't help! She's just a celebrity. Does she really think she's a savior?!]

[To be honest, in such a dangerous situation, it's better not to act rashly just to show off!]

[Tiantian, you're not a judge in the entertainment industry! You don't understand how to educate students; they won't listen to you!]

Despite the objections in the comments, Yi Tiantian went up to the rooftop alone, with the cameraman filming from a distance.

The two girls continued to fight, driven by jealousy and anger. Their legs flailed in the air as their bodies shifted closer to the edge, their calves now dangling over the void!

"Your dream is to become an idol loved by everyone."

In the midst of the intense struggle, Yi Tiantian's voice was gentle, like a cloud floating in the sky.

The two girls, who were cursing each other with venomous words, paused upon hearing this strange statement and looked up at Yi Tiantian.

"What are you talking about?!" Chen Chen, already enraged, shouted.

"Yi Tiantian, I admit you're a famous idol, but I advise you not to meddle here!"

Faced with Chen Chen's fiery temper, Yi Tiantian remained silent, looking gently at Little Qi.

She continued, "You once said that becoming an idol would bring you endless love."

Hearing Yi Tiantian's words, Little Qi froze.

These were indeed words she had spoken before.

"Although Little Qi comes from a well-off family, she grew up in a divorced household. Her parents' tragic marriage indirectly led to her love-starved childhood."

"So when she grew up, Little Qi placed all her hopes on the first man she fell in love with, forgetting why she enrolled at Brand University of the Arts—to become an idol beloved by fans!"

"In recent years, Little Qi has posted dance videos and vlogs online, gaining many followers. Fans, upon learning that their beloved idol might die because of a scoundrel, organized a flower tribute for her!"

"Countless fans visited Little Qi's grave, crying and hating Chen Nong, the culprit who caused her death!"

Listening to Yi Tiantian's inner voice, Little Qi's grip on Chen Chen gradually loosened.

She began to awaken.

Little Qi felt as if someone had opened a new perspective for her, pulling her out of her obsession with "only marrying Mr. Chen"!

Yes, what she truly wanted was love.

Did she really love Chen Nong?

He had always been lying to her! Why should she love such a liar!

And there were so many fans online waiting for her to update her dance videos, ready to interact with her as soon as she posted.

Little Qi suddenly realized this.

The love from her fans was far purer than the love Chen Nong had given her!

Why should she destroy herself along with Chen Chen for such a man?

Yi Tiantian saw Little Qi's expression gradually calm down and knew her words had taken effect.

The classmates behind her cast admiring glances at Yi Tiantian, surprised that she had managed to persuade Little Qi by appealing to her basic psychological needs so effectively!

Even the headmaster breathed a sigh of relief.

It seemed Yi Tiantian truly had some skills, just as Gang Fengxing had said!

Gang Fengxing smiled slightly, having always believed in his heart that Yi Tiantian would succeed in persuading these two girls!

The audience watching through the live stream also relaxed.

[Thank goodness for Yi Tiantian; otherwise, I really thought they would both jump! I was wrong to doubt her earlier! She understands education better than some teachers!]

[But how did Yi Tiantian know about this girl?]

[Don't forget, Yi Tiantian is a teacher. She must have done her homework on each student! No other guest in previous episodes has achieved this level of understanding. Yi Tiantian is genuinely dedicated to this show!]

[Oh my, our Tiantian is such a hardworking, kind, and brave young lady! Those who criticized her earlier should be ashamed!]

Seeing that the persuasion had worked on Little Qi, Yi Tiantian was about to continue with Chen Chen when she heard hurried footsteps behind her.

Then, a presumptuous male voice echoed behind her.

"Little Qi, Chen Chen, don't do anything foolish!"

Chen Nong finally arrived, ignoring Gang Fengxing's attempts to stop him as he rushed onto the rooftop.

Hearing Chen Nong's voice, Little Qi felt a lingering attachment but mostly let go of her obsession.

However, Chen Chen became even more agitated upon hearing the voice of the scoundrel teacher.

She screamed, "Teacher! Little Qi is trying to push me off the rooftop! Help me!"

Despite her words, Chen Chen was pushing Little Qi with all her might, trying to force her off the rooftop.

Caught off guard, Little Qi found herself half suspended in mid-air!

"Ah!!"

The classmates watching gasped again.

The headmaster and Gang Fengxing took a step forward anxiously.

The live stream chat exploded with "!!!", and many began mocking again.

[Those who praised Yi Tiantian earlier, speak up now! Look at what your Tiantian is doing! Both girls are about to fall!!]

[We need professionals here... I'm really worried about these girls!!]

[Yi Tiantian, get out of the way! Don't make things worse!!]

"Crazy Chen Chen! Stop pushing me! I don't want to fight you over this scoundrel teacher!"

Little Qi struggled to pull herself back up, fighting to avoid falling.

But Chen Chen, seeing that Little Qi was already halfway off the edge, pushed harder.

Little Qi, weaker than Chen Chen, felt herself being pushed closer to the edge, every cell in her body screaming.

Just then, a hand grabbed her arm.

Little Qi's will to survive kicked in, and she clung to the arm, pulling herself back up.

Seeing Yi Tiantian helping Little Qi, Chen Chen became even more frantic.

She screamed, "None of you deserve to live! Teacher Chen is mine alone!!"

Gang Fengxing, seeing Yi Tiantian grab Little Qi, rushed over and helped pull her back.

The students were terrified, holding their breath and frozen in place.

Chen Nong, realizing he had provoked such a reckless person, felt his scalp tingle.

Suddenly, Cheng Zhi gently pushed him, and Chen Nong snapped out of his shock, running forward.

Worried about getting involved, he stayed a distance away and shouted, "Chen Chen, we can talk this out. Don't do anything foolish!"

Seeing Chen Nong, Chen Chen seized the opportunity and demanded, "Teacher, choose now! If you don't, I'll take everyone down with me!"

Seeing Chen Chen's desperate state, Chen Nong was terrified.

But he hesitated upon hearing her demand.

Chen Nong didn't care about anyone's life; even if Chen Chen jumped today, taking another life with her, he wouldn't shed a tear for them.

Seeing Chen Nong's silence, Chen Chen was on the brink of madness.

"Chen Nong didn't answer Chen Chen, and she went berserk, standing up and lunging at Little Qi, causing both of them to fall!"

Gang Fengxing and Yi Tiantian desperately pulled Little Qi back from the balcony edge. After hearing Yi Tiantian's thoughts, Gang Fengxing quickly shielded her behind him.

The classmates behind them were furious at Chen Nong!

Yi Tiantian kicked Chen Nong, who was beside her, and shouted, "Scum, speak up now!"

Chen Nong's pale face instantly turned red. Enduring the pain from the kick, he hastily said, "I choose you, Chen Chen. I choose you!"

"Really?"

Chen Chen, like someone who had seen light in the darkness, stopped her frantic behavior and asked.

"Really! I mean it!"

Chen Nong wanted to lie temporarily to calm Chen Chen down and get her away from the dangerous rooftop.

Chen Chen indeed complied and let Yi Tiantian pull her up and sit down, eventually leaving the edge of the rooftop.

Now both girls were finally safe!

As Yi Tiantian and Gang Fengxing each led one of the girls back into the corridor from the rooftop, all their classmates applauded. The firefighters and police also arrived on the scene and took the two girls and the sweating Chen Nong away.

The principal, who had been sweating profusely, finally felt relieved and rushed over to shake Yi Tiantian's hand.

"Teacher Yi, Teacher Gang, thank you so much! With my old bones, I couldn't help much. It's all thanks to you that nothing worse happened!"

Yi Tiantian shook her head and smiled, replying, "This is what teachers should do."

Gang Fengxing immediately gave Yi Tiantian a thumbs-up. "Teacher Yi is right!"

The audience watching the live stream were thoroughly impressed by Yi Tiantian's performance.

[Yi Tiantian, you're simply amazing! That move to push and kick Teacher Chen was so powerful!]

[Thanks to Yi Tiantian and Gang Fengxing, the two girls were saved!!]

[My goodness... Is this really an educational variety show? It's so thrilling! Yi Tiantian is an exceptionally qualified teacher!]

[But why did Yi Tiantian call Teacher Chen a scum? Could these two girls be in love with Teacher Chen?!]

The audience quickly started brainstorming, guessing the truth almost accurately.

"Although Chen Nong's lies temporarily calmed Chen Chen, she was later abandoned by this scum teacher!"

"After being abandoned, she became even more deranged and publicly self-harmed in front of the school building!"

"It seems we need to make Chen Chen see the true nature of this scum teacher to prevent further tragedy!"

Just as everyone thought the matter was finally over, they suddenly heard Yi Tiantian's inner voice again.

Instantly, the students' hearts were once again in their throats.

How could this not be over yet?!

Chen Nong, that scum, truly does evil deeds!

Due to the dramatic events of the afternoon, the production team postponed the class meeting scheduled for that evening.

After confirming that the guests were not affected, the production team replaced the time slot with individual interviews.

After Yi Tiantian's solo interview, she and Gang Fengxing went for a walk around Brand University of the Arts under the night sky.

The events of the afternoon were too intense, and both needed some quiet time to relax.

They walked to a campus café around the corner and each ordered a coffee.

Yi Tiantian opened her phone, which she hadn't checked all afternoon and evening, and found numerous notifications about "Idol University Season 3."

The Weibo trending topics were filled with content from today's live stream, dominating the entire list.

#IdolUniversitySeason3RooftopIncident#

#YiTiantianGangFengxingHeroicRescue#

#BrandUniversityoftheArtsScandal#

#ScumTeacherChenNong#

...

At that moment, Yi Tiantian received a picture and numerous chat records from Brother Cheng.

The picture contained data from the live stream, while the chat records were between Brother Cheng and Director Liu of "Idol University Season 3" from that afternoon.

Director Liu seemed extremely excited, sending several messages in a row.

Director Liu: Xiao Cheng, although the events of this afternoon were dangerous, they brought our program unprecedented viewership, breaking the hundred million mark! Our third season has exploded! Even my director friends abroad called to ask about today's live stream!

Brother Cheng: Haha, Tiantian is indeed our company's ace artist!

Director Liu: You wouldn't believe it, but many directors in our industry didn't think highly of the guests I invited, especially your idol Yi Tiantian, saying he wouldn't bring any substance to the show and would ruin it! But after watching the live stream this afternoon, this kid is completely teacher material! He's even more responsible than some actual teachers! It's a stark contrast to that Chen teacher!

Director Liu: After the live stream, those directors who mocked my show have gone silent! Hahahaha!

Brother Cheng's chat records were filled with Director Liu's excited remarks, bringing Yi Tiantian some amusement.

Brother Cheng: Tiantian, did you watch the live stream this afternoon? Are you okay? If you don't want to continue filming, we can take a break from the show.

Seeing Brother Cheng's concerned message, Yi Tiantian promptly replied.

Yi Tiantian: "Brother Cheng, everything's fine here. Don't worry."

After Brother Cheng sent a few more messages, Yi Tiantian finally looked up from her phone screen.

As soon as she lifted her head, she met Gang Fengxing's puppy-like gaze.

"Tiantian Ge, has anyone ever told you that your eyes are very beautiful?"

Gang Fengxing rubbed the coffee cup, his eyes sparkling as he asked.

Just as Yi Tiantian was about to speak, her phone rang at that exact moment.

Gang Fengxing instantly wanted to beat up whoever was on the other end of the call.

This call came at such an inconvenient time!

"Hello, yes, I'm doing well now."

Yi Tiantian answered the call and whispered to Gang Fengxing, "It's Fei Cheng, the actor."

At the mention of this name, Gang Fengxing got so angry that he downed the full cup of coffee in one go!

Fei Cheng, that despicable scoundrel! How dare he interrupt their two-person recording session with Tiantian Ge!

"It's okay, no need to rest."

Yi Tiantian continued talking to Fei Cheng, which made Gang Fengxing so angry that he ordered another cup of coffee.

"Don't drink too much; we have class tomorrow."

Yi Tiantian had just hung up the phone and quickly stopped Gang Fengxing from ordering another cup of coffee.

Seeing that her beloved Tiantian Ge had finally shifted her attention back to him, Gang Fengxing immediately forgot about his earlier displeasure.

He behaved like a big dog, obediently saying, "Okay! I'll listen to Tiantian Ge!"

"Good boy!"

Yi Tiantian praised him.

Gang Fengxing was so elated by the words "good boy" that he felt like he was floating on air.

But this happiness lasted only for five seconds before it was interrupted because Gang Fengxing heard Yi Tiantian's thoughts again.

"The police educated the two girls and Chen Nong and then left. Little Qi has completely seen through the fact that Chen Nong is a scumbag and decided to terminate the pregnancy!"

"But Chen Chen has fallen into a pathological infatuation. After the police left, she started threatening Chen Nong with death, insisting on marrying him and being together forever!"

"Chen Nong used delaying tactics to temporarily pacify Chen Chen. But in reality, he has already hatched a more comprehensive plan!"

"This time, instead of letting the two girls fight each other, he plans to use someone else's hands to get rid of Chen Chen and Little Qi..."

"!!!"

Gang Fengxing got goosebumps all over and perked up his ears to listen further.

But Yi Tiantian didn't continue her thoughts after that!

Gang Fengxing was as anxious as a king in a hurry. He couldn't imagine what kind of heinous act this scumbag Chen Nong would commit!

.

A few hours ago, the scumbag teacher Chen Nong was driven out of the office by his colleagues.

"Chen Nong, we're ashamed of the disgusting things you've done! You don't deserve to be a teacher!"

"Wait for your dismissal! Scum like you should be in jail!"

Hearing the curses from inside the room, Chen Nong, who had been pushed to the ground, was furious.

At that moment, a few students passed by Chen Nong.

If it were before, these students would definitely greet him, but now they might...

Before Chen Nong could finish his thought, he heard the friendly voice of a student: "Hello, Teacher Chen."

Chen Nong was pleasantly surprised; he didn't expect that even now there were still students who liked him!

He happily replied, "Hello!"

"How can scum like you still be alive?!"

To his surprise, the students who had been smiling just moments ago suddenly turned hostile.

"Don't waste oxygen on this earth!"

"Get out of our university! You don't belong here as a teacher!"

These students not only cursed at him but also spat on him as they walked away.

Chen Nong wiped the saliva off his face, glared fiercely at the students' retreating figures, and took a photo of them with his phone.

"You'll regret this!"

Chen Nong cursed venomously.

He endured the pain and got up from the ground, dialing a number on his phone.

In the darkness, his lips curled into a sinister smile, and his eyes gleamed with an eerie light.
